MIKE VICK SUDDENLY A SYMPATHETIC FIGURE

We all remember those good times from yesterday, when police searched one of Michael Vick's properties and found neglected dogs, which stirred the news that he's long been under investigation for participating in illegal cock- and dog-fighting. It was enough to maybe give you a negative view of the otherwise stalwart citizen that is Michael Vick.

PETA is calling on the Atlanta Falcons to immediately suspend Vick pending the outcome of the investigation, and if animals on his property are found to have been neglected or used for fighting, we're asking that he be released from the team… [E]ven a year with Joey Harrington at the helm is better than having your team led by someone with a mark like this on their record.

Now that's just an ugly statement. Don't get me wrong, I prefer dogs to most people (I can't get enough of the Daily Puppy), but any kind of criminal is better than Joey Harrington as your quarterback. If I had a choice between Harrington and a re-animated Adolf Hitler to QB my team, I'd rub my chin and say, "How does Hitler move in the pocket?"

Isn’t it funny how whoever PETA backs instantly makes you want to hit them with a brick? These are people who compared the living conditions of concentration camps to that of what poultry goes through. Yes, that’s mightily just – a human soul in anguish about to be murdered … and a chicken mcnugget. Farkin idiots.

I heard Genghis Khan can run a mean option offense.

What I find funny is that PETA makes demands as if any large corporation or franchise (or anyone with a mind for business for that matter) could care about their cause. Maybe it’s not the same in Vick’s case because of his arguable play as of late, but if Peyton Manning, for example, walked around in a dogskin coat with baby turtle shells as shoes and the Colts front office even considered getting rid of him there would be blood in the streets. What a joke.

Eye for an eye, I say. Michael Vick vs. Ron Artest should be starved for one week, then fight each other for a steak. Or a shot of penicillin to clean up those herpes. Winner’s choice.

Hitler starts out like a house on fire, especially when the Blitz is working for him. He ends up trying to do too much himself, though, and his bunker mentality results in too many self-inflicted wounds.

They connected Ron Mexico to the case when they found out all the dogs mysteriously had HERPIES.

Hitler also cant win if the temperature drops below 32 degrees. But he gets extra points from his teammates for giving excellent mustache rides in the locker room. Also Robbie Gould suddenly looses all confidence to kick field goals when Hitler is in the stadium.

That’s why Hitler’s game plan relied on turning the heat up to 140 degrees.

I’m officially tired of this guy. Make him go away.

You guys are jerks. PETA’s stance isn’t that all animals should be treated like humans. IT’s that they just dont want them tortured. What is so wrong with that? And if they weren’t so extreme no one would pay attention to them.
